Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater at Paramount Theatre Seattle

The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Isn't Your Average Dance Company

No one does it like the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater! From the way they recruit and train dancers to the unique choreography that goes back to the founder, an icon in dance like Alvin Ailey. This performance is an attempt to truly tell a story through dance and not just use dancing as an add-on to a play, like you'd find with other companies. This is part dance show, part true art exhibition.    

The Colors & Lights Blend to Generate a Unique Experience 

A great choreography can still look average if the dancers don't have the right outfits. One of the things that this company excels at is providing its performers with even updated costumes for traditional representations that the company has put on in the past. The stage design seems overly simple, but the lights play a massive role in making sure the audience can focus on the performance. This show needs to run like a well-oiled machine, and there are plenty of elements that work together to ensure that happens. If you've been to one of these before, you understand why it's so hard to describe exactly what you're in line to see once the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater company takes center stage.  

The Best Seats at the Paramount Theatre

You might want to be a little closer to the stage at this event compared to where you'd like to sit for a play or musical. From up close, you'll be able to spot details in the performance that you might otherwise overlook. At the same time, you don't want to be too close to the stage because that might mean having to look up the entire night. A few rows removed from the front and in the middle of the theater is where you'll find the best seats to see Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater live.
